Hope and Change (and Hateful Stereotypes) Liberals Can Believe In

Obama Oddly Unpopular
in Former Slave States
— Josh Marshall, Talking Points Memo

Yeah, thanks Josh. I live in Maryland, a “former slave state” where Obama got 62% of the vote. But never mind that. What does affluent Ivy League a–hole Josh Marshall have to say about Alvin Greene winning the Democrat primary in the “former slave state” of South Carolina?

C’mon, Josh, tell me: Is it OK for white Democrat Vic Rawl to assert that the election of a black Army veteran in a “former slave state” is somehow illegitimate?

What if a Republican in a “former slave state” had questioned Alvin Greene’s “mental status,” Josh? What would you say then?

And while we’re at it, Josh, what about the recent outbreak of political violence from that “former slave state” of North Carolina?

“It’s wrong to accuse liberals of not having standards. They have exactly two — one for them, and one for everybody else.”
— Robert Stacy McCain

Remember: There are 5 A’s in “raaaaacism.”

    I like President Obama. Do you have a problem with that?

    It is a proven fact that reading Josh Marshall’s drivel rots your brain cells and will eventually turn you into a leftist automaton, shuffling zombie-like and following mobs of SEIU thugs, roaming the countryside to stamp out freedom of thought wherever it is found and to feed on the brains of the living.

    You can look it up!

    It is proven that reading Josh Marshall’s drivel creates slow motion transgender changes and hormone shifts in males exposed to it. Unless you have a penchant for personally growing breasts, shrinking your testis, and hot flashes–don’t do it.

    And since you mentioned Alvin Greene, I explain on my blog why he’s the perfect example of what’s wrong with the 17th Amendment.

    Maybe he’s just talking about Democrats in former slave states. Here in Alabama, the Democrats overwhelmingly rejected the black candidate Artur Davis in favor of Bull Connor- Democrat Ron Sparks. I mean, I guess it makes sense. The Democrats did found the Ku Klux Klan. And every villain of the Civil Rights (Orville Faubus, George Wallace, Lester Maddox, etc) was a Democrat…just like Josh Marshall.

    Um, aren’t all 13 of the original colonies/states former slave states? Like Massachusetts, Pennsylvania and New Jersey? Was that why they dumped Obama’s picks for office?

    Greece and Rome are oddly very popular Northeastern librul vacationers destinations. How is it possible that libruls wish to visit and leave some of their money in two former slave-owning nations.

    President Obama: Thank you all. I want you all to know — it [bullhorn] can’t go any louder — I want you all to know that American today, American today is on bended knee, in prayer for the people whose lives were lost here, even though I did not contact their families for months, for the workers who work here, for the families who mourn. The nation stands with the good people of the Gulf as we mourn the loss of thousands of our pelicans and turtles and jobs. Even if we cannot except foriegn skimmer ship help because it will violate the protectionist Jones Act and I am feeling exhausted legislatively after pushing through Heath Care Reform, so I did not think an emergency exception to that act was worth it.

    Gulf Rescue Worker: I can’t understand you!

    President Obama: I can hear you! I can hear you! The rest of the world hears you! And the people — and the British Petroleum who caused this mess will hear all of us soon!

    Democrat Union Members: [Chanting] Yes We Can! Yes We Can! Yes We Can! Yes We Can! Yes We Can!
